Mayor Hicks-Hudson Places First in September Primary
Mayor Paula Hicks-Hudson surprised a number of observers with her strong first-place finish in the September 12 primary for a full four-year term for mayor. She garnered almost 39 percent of the vote in her race against two well-known opponents – Lucas County Treasury Wade Kapszukiewicz and Toledo City Councilman Tom Waniewski. Kapszukiewicz, a Democrat, earned 33.54 percent of the vote to move on to the general election in November. Republican Waniewski finished with 26.75 percent and is out of the running. >
